Absolutely beautiful Fretsource, you really have a way with that music. Personally, I can take as much of that as you want to post.

I'm more than happy to take the blame for that one. A beautiful tune, fabulously played. Thanks so much, that could have been the soundtrack to my day which included a walk along the attractive seafront at Nairn, where the D-day landings were practised, followed by a 3 and a 1/2 hour drive through some of Scotland's most scenic glens and countryside (although it's hard to take it all in when you're travelling at 70 mph ).

Hats off to the composer, he did a great job to make it sound so traditional.

Great song and playing fretsource! Very calming sound.
How come my gee-tar doesn't sound like that when I play it?
